SoundClash Festival

SoundClash Music Festival, hosted by the Harbourfront Centre, returns to Toronto.

Featuring artists like Chairlift (July 12), and Born Ruffians (July 13) over the course of three days, this year’s SoundClash festival is curated under the theme of “terrain.”

A major segment of the annual music celebration are the SoundClash Music Awards. Offering winnings of $10,000 in cash prizes, artists of all music genres are invited to compete. The nominee showcase for this award will be presented on July 13, on the Redpath stage. This year’s shortlist nominees include singer-songwriter Kashka, post-punk electronica act PROGRAM, jazzy folk trio The Jessica Stuart Trio, pop R&B singer Brendan Phillip, world music influenced The Thing Is and alt-rockers Grounders.

Also on display at the Harbourfront area during this time is the World Cafe, and Lake View Market, both of which are on display all summer long.
